What a unique voice he had. Also married to the actress Susan Player, who was in some 70’s beach movies.

I went to see a show many years ago in Westwood and he was in the audience and they brought him up on stage for a little musical fun. What a voice. RIP, Mr. Jarreau.

Moonlighting

I remember that show and another favorite, Max Headroom were on the same night.

Ha , ha , All the “Artists” that planned on ripping on Trump tonight will not be given time to do so. There will be a big tribute to Al J.

[SMGFan]

Only recognized him for singing Moonlighting theme https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkrawE4dE5c

Great show that fell apart...

[Menehune56]

Sad to hear, he was a wonderful singer.

[AZSonic]

Great memories of my youth with AJ in the 80’s and 90’s. Used to have all his albums in vinyl and still listen to him today. RIP.

[Defiant]

If only he’d made it another day he could have denounced Trump tonight.

[Vendome]

Damn.

Saw him several times in concert. Yes, back in the 80’s.

Loved his voice and ability to create something new out of something old.

Theme from “Moonlighting”

RIP.

[TwelveOfTwenty]

I loved his music. Many of my memories from the 80s included his songs. RIP.

The Grammy freak show could stand to learn some class from him.

“Need I tell you that everything here is just fine.....in my mind.”

[WENDLE]

I wonder if these so called Artists realize that are pissing off 64 million people who will never watch them again? Gosh that is moronic.

[MV=PY]

RIP, I liked his unusual vocal tones and restrained jazz styles.

Unfortunately, I later learned about his political views (radical pro-black). I lost some respect.
